Larne vs Crvena Zvezda prediction
Larne reached the league phase of the UEFA Europa Conference League in the 2024-25 campaign but were knocked out of that competition at the third qualifying round stage last season. They do now have at least a play-off for that competition guaranteed after they defeated Sammarinese champions Tre Fiori last week.
Crvena Zvezda, coached by former Internazionale midfielder Dejan Stankovic, won the domestic double last season while reaching the knockout playoff stage of the UEFA Europa League. Key man Aleksandar Katai has stayed put, too, after interest from elsewhere thus far this summer.
Crvena Zvezda are a proper European outfit and Larne will have to accept that their run in the UEFA Champions League is now likely coming to an end.
